God of War III is the third installment in the God of War series and final (chronological) installment of the Greek era of games, released for the PlayStation 3 in 2010.Picking up right where the previous game left off, it details Kratos and the Titans' assault on Olympus. After killing Poseidon, Kratos is betrayed by Gaia and tossed into the underworld, but escapes and begins to climb Mount Olympus, killing all who stand in his path — Hades, Helios, Hercules, Cronos, Hephaestus, Hera — and learning that Pandora's Box still exists, now deep in the Labyrinth and guarded by an eternal fire which can only be snuffed out if Pandora herself immolates herself on it. This proves troubling, because as Kratos escorts Pandora through the dungeon, he quite possibly begins to think of her as a daughter. Kratos wants to kill Zeus, but he also wants his family back. Which one will he choose?The game got an enhanced rerelease in Summer of 2015 for the PlayStation 4. It would be followed by a Soft Reboot of the series and the start of the Norse Saga with God of War (PS4).God of War III contains examples of the following tropes (Beware of unmarked spoilers): | |

"Get Back Here!" Boss | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_10f5b375 | comment |
"Get Back Here!" Boss: The majority of Kratos' encounter with Hermes is simply chasing him down; since he's the speedy messenger of the gods, he delights in dashing about making fun of him. Once Kratos manages to knock the wind out of him he barely puts up a fight to speak of—chasing him down was the real contest. | |

Gaia's Lament: Because of Kratos' actions, the world is flooded and all plant life is dying out. Once Gaia returns, she is infuriated that her world has decayed and declares that she now has a reason to kill him completely on purpose. | |

God of War III (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The hilariously suggestive sex QTE in III certainly counts. Though given where the half-circle-up is, it does rather suggest Kratos takes an unholy amount of time getting out of the practically nothing he's usually almost wearing. Aphrodite complains to Kratos, "Do you know how long it's been since a real man came into my chamber?" | |

God of War III (Video Game) / int_1f963842 | comment |
Bloodier and Gorier: The series was already plenty bloody and gory but, thanks to the jump from the Playstation 2 to Playstation 3, this game ramps it up to eleven. The studio actually said some screenshots are so violent, they cannot be released on gaming news websites without being censored. They have an independent engine in place to animate enemies being ripped to pieces and having their organs fall out. Some highlights include Kratos gutting centaurs and Cronos, causing their guts to spill out, and brutally tearing a cyclops' eye out of its head with his bare hands. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: In this game, Hercules, rather than the legendary hero most fiction depicts him as, is shown as arrogant and jealous of Kratos' accomplishments, as well as Zeus' apparent Parental Favoritism for the Spartan. Though it was implied that he might still be the legendary hero... if it wasn't for Envy from Pandora's Box cursing him. | |

Chekhov's Gun: The Great Chain appears at the beginning, when Kratos is thrown off of Gaia. It comes into play before the final boss, as Kratos uses it to pull Pandora all the way up to the peak of Olympus. The Three Judges appear early on, holding the Great Chain. They become the last obstacle in Kratos' quest to take Pandora to the Flame of Olympus, as he must shatter the Onyx crystals embedded on the statues while fighting hordes of enemies in order to proceed. | |

Ironic Echo | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_237404cc | comment |
Ironic Echo: When their initial attack on Zeus goes badly and leaves them clinging to the side of Mount Olympus, Gaia refuses to help Kratos, telling him he was nothing but a pawn of the Titans and she has no further use for him, declaring "This is our war, not yours," and leaving Kratos to plummet into the River Styx. When Kratos later gets out of the Underworld and comes across Gaia struggling to reclimb Olympus, the latter legitimately expects Kratos to help her despite her betrayal. Instead, Kratos throws Gaia's words back in her face before severing her hand and sending her plummeting to her apparent demise. When starting a new game, Kratos says "My vengeance... ends here", teasing that he's about to complete his Roaring Rampage of Revenge. At the end of the game, we return to this scene after he has already accomplished this when he killed all of the gods. He realizes the damage he caused and sacrifices himself to give the world hope. | |

Uncertain Doom | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_2854b56d | comment |
Uncertain Doom: Aphrodite is the only goddess not killed by Kratos during his rampage, yet her survival is ambiguous at the end due to Athena not accounting for her when saying she is the last remaining Olympian. Its possible she may have died when Gaia's corpse crushed Mount Olympus or Zeus' death unleashed complete chaos upon the world. Then again, each God's death had a plague associated with it. We simply can't say for certain that love/lust "died" to chaos in the same manner that the sun, sky, ocean, and afterlife did, nor that can we say that it survived, though by the 2018 game it's highly implied that all the other Greek Gods died as collateral damage. | |

Regret Eating Me: Near the end of the fight with him, Cronos attempts to finish Kratos off by eating him whole. Kratos just cuts his way out of Cronos' gut with the Blade of Olympus. Ironically, before doing so, Cronos tells Kratos that "eating you will be more unpleasant for me"; he had no idea how right he was. | |

Was It Really Worth It?: At the end, Kratos finally gets his revenge having killed everyone who ever wronged him...but by that point he realizes just how much of his misery was his own fault. He also finally notices the devastation he wrought upon the world during his campaign for vengeance and he's been changed enough to actually give a damn about it. | |

Nominal Hero: Kratos does many, many genuinely evil things throughout this game, including the brutal slaughter of innocent people (at least to the extent that they did not wrong him) as they beg for their lives. This includes burning a man to death for an item he's holding, and kidnapping a pleading naked woman and using her to prop a door open as she screams for mercy. She is then gruesomely crushed to death by said door | |

Even Evil Has Standards | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: Evil might be a stretch but Kratos does not blame Hephaestus in any way; yes, he turned on him, but he was doing it to protect his child, rather than just being a monumental cunt like the rest of the Pantheon. Kratos even notes later than Hephaestus was being a good father - it just meant the two had to clash as their goals misaligned with one another. And while Kratos shows the cruelty and rage that made him so infamous that even the Norse pantheon eventually took notice, Kratos doesn't go for the kill unprovoked - every deity and titan that Kratos kills took either the first swing or betrayed him. | |

Kick the Dog: While on his way through Olympus, Kratos winds up in Poseidon's personal quarters, kidnaps his mistress and forces her to prop a door open. She begs him not to leave her behind, but he just ignores her as she is crushed under the lever's weight. Aphrodite refers to her husband Hephaestus as "worthless" and cheats on him without a hint of remorse. Zeus forces Daedalus to build the new labyrinth for him, with the promise that he will bring back Icarus if he does. Once Daedalus is finished, Zeus ties him up in such a way that if the labyrinth is ever finished, Daedalus will be ripped to pieces. And as Kratos, you the player have to do this. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: The second Titanomachy was shaping up to be this as the modern Olympians proved more than a match for the Titans: Poseidon took out Epimethius and at least one more titan single-handed, Hades swiftly killed Oceanus, Helios had Perses well in hand, and Zeus easily blasted Gaia apart with one lightning bolt... in fact, the gods would have likely won the battle without a single casualty if not for the intervention of Kratos. | |

Bad Black Barf: A big thick black cloud of something escapes from Zeus' mouth before Kratos begins his Extreme Mêlée Revenge. It seems to have been the Fear inside of Pandora's Box, as he seems to come to his senses in that brief moment. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Heavy emphasis on bitter to the point of being a downer; Kratos' need for vengeance has slain all of the gods, and the world lays in ruins and total chaos as a result. However, Kratos realizes the error of his ways and released the power of hope for mankind's use, and as shown in The Stinger, the sun, which has been blocked out since Helios' death, is finally beginning to peek through the clouds again, implying that the world will recover (which it does). | |

Sequel Hook: When Gaia rails against Kratos and Zeus, the latter replies "Your pawn has failed you, Gaia. Perhaps you should have chosen the other one!". And while in Kratos' mind, a character never heard before can be heard addressing him as "brother". Played with, as it is actually a prequel hook for God of War: Ghost of Sparta. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation: Icarus' Wings alternate between Cutscene Incompetence and Cutscene Power to the Max in III. At the beginning of the game, Kratos doesn't think about using them before falling into the Styx. But in several cutscenes afterwards he uses them to actually fly, while you can only glide in gameplay. You do get a couple of actual flying segments though, once by using a powerful updraft, and again by skydiving down the same tunnel. | |

Meaningful Echo: Early in the game, Pandora says that she trusts Kratos, who replies with a blunt "you shouldn't". At the end, Athena tells Kratos that she trusts him to do the right thing, to which Kratos responds "you shouldn't", in a more sorrowful tone. In both cases, Kratos is right; he initially plans to use Pandora as an instrument of his revenge on Zeus (although he later changes his mind, it doesn't amount to much), and the Spartan betrays Athena by impaling himself on the Blade of Olympus, releasing the power of hope into the world rather than surrendering it to Athena. | |

Boss in Mook Clothing: The centaurs. They almost never flinch, love interrupting your combos while you fight smaller mooks (because they always come with smaller mooks), have a crapton of health, and the QTE when they grab you requires super-human reflexes to win. The finishing move on them is one of the squickiest of the game, but you won't mind. Chimeras are a similar case, although they are arguably easier to deal with. | |

God of War III (Video Game) / int_973d220f | comment |
Never My Fault: Gaia, upon seeing the world falling apart as a result of the gods' deaths, confronts Kratos and blames him for it, saying that "her world bleeds because of him." However, she was the mastermind behind the titan insurrection against the Olympians, and the one who started it all by resurrecting Kratos after he was killed by Zeus at the start of the second game. | |

Foreshadowing: When Kratos first asks Hephaestus about the Flame of Olympus, his facial expression completely shifts on a dime, and sharp eyes will notice his eye twitches slightly as he responds with his own question as to why the Spartan wishes to know about it. He vaguely states Kratos will find the Flame if he can escape the Underworld, which does in fact happen. This conversation clues him in on the threat Kratos poses to Pandora, which is why he's so unhelpful for the rest of the game until his attempted Uriah Gambit. | |

If the minigame is succesfully completed, the camera pans back to the bed as we see the two women have sex on the floor. | |

Entitled Bastard: Despite having abandoned Kratos to fall into the River Styx after their initial attack on Zeus went badly, along with the fact that she flat-out told Kratos to his face that he was nothing more than a pawn of hers and the Titans and she had no more use for him, Gaia genuinely expects Kratos to help her up when she's later having trouble reclimbing Mount Olympus... only to be shocked when Kratos basically tells her to screw off before cutting off her hand, sending her falling to her (apparent) doom. | |

Alas, Poor Villain: Zeus. It's revealed in the ending that he wasn't actually evil, he was just consumed by the evils of Pandora's Box, which came out when Kratos opened it. That being said, there are plenty of hints throughout the series and in actual mythology to suggest he was already a Jerkass God even before his infection and it merely worsened his character, making this likely a Downplayed Trope. | |

All for Nothing: The previous game ended with Kratos freeing the Titans, with them storming Olympus. And then they get their asses kicked easily by the gods, to the extent that by the time Kratos catches up with them, all but two of them have died. Kratos goes searching for Pandora, to undo the Olympus Flame, and in the process lays waste to all Olympus. And then it turns out what he was looking for was inside him all along. | |

Prophecy Twist | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_bb5126ec | comment |
Prophecy Twist: Just as Chronos had killed his father Uranos, and as Zeus had killed his father Chronos, it was prophecized that Zeus would be killed by his own child (and presumedly succeeded as the ruler of gods). Zeus' actions throughout the second and third game are all meant to prevent Kratos from fulfilling that prophecy. There is however an additional Genius Bonus that is easy to miss. In some versions of the myth of the birth of Athena, Zeus devours her pregnant mother because she was prophecized to give birth to a child more powerful than its father and he remembered the prophecy about his own end. When Athena later sprang from a hole in his head, the issue was apparently forgotten and she joined the pantheon of gods. By the end of the game it turns out that Athena had been planning everything from the very start (as befits a goddess of knowledge and strategy) to get Zeus killed and become the new ruler of the gods instead. Which would make her also qualify for the prophecy, except that Kratos prevented her from ursuping Zeus power. | |

Natural Disaster Cascade: The deaths of each of the gods unleashes a different natural disaster upon the world, often based on the god's element — The Great Flood, storm-clouds which seemingly bring The Night That Never Ends, all plant life withering and dying. By the game's end, after Kratos has killed most of the gods including Zeus, Greece is an unrecognizable, flooded, thunderstorm-skied and tornado-plagued waste, although it's indicated humanity will still survive. The sequel implies the effects were limited to Greece. | |

Kratos (seemingly) defeats Zeus in the final battle by pinning him against Gaia's heart and stabbing through him with the Blade of Olympus, killing him and Gaia at the same time. Kratos stabs himself with the Blade of Olympus to prevent Athena from claiming the power of Hope stored inside him, though the post-credits cutscene heavily imply that he has survived. | |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_d99a228f | comment |
Unusually Uninteresting Sight: In the cutscene where Pandora talks to Kratos about hope, she seems unfazed by the fact that Kratos is using a severed head as a lantern. | |

Something Else Also Rises | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_dae0cfd5 | comment |
The hilariously suggestive sex QTE in III certainly counts. Though given where the half-circle-up is, it does rather suggest Kratos takes an unholy amount of time getting out of the practically nothing he's usually almost wearing. | |

God of War III (Video Game) / int_e0e8cce6 | comment |
Silly Rabbit, Idealism Is for Kids!: Kratos tries to shut down Pandora's talk of hope by showing her Daedalus' mangled body within the labyrinth. This doesn't do much to actually dissuade her. | |

Reforged Blade | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_e360ae63 | comment |
Reforged Blade: As the Blades of Athena were ruined by the River Styx when Kratos fell in, Athena remakes them into the Blades of Exile. | |

Extreme Mêlée Revenge | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_e41cf31d | comment |
Extreme Mêlée Revenge: At the very end of the game, Kratos tosses aside his weapons and decides to just straight-up beat Zeus to death with his bare hands. It's a QTE event, and the player can carry on for as long as they please. | |

God of War III (Video Game) / int_e87aed53 | comment |
Classical Chimera: The Chimera appears, as a reoccurring mini-boss. They switch between bipedal and quadrupedal gaits, with the goat being the dominant and final phase of the fight. | |

Boss Remix: In the third installment, the final boss battle with Zeus has this song that contains sections from Zeus' Wrath Divine from the first God Of War and The Isle Of Creation from God of War II. Both remixed themes appeared in final boss battles of their respective games. | |

Eyeball-Plucking Birds: The teaser trailer "Fear Nothing" begins with a raven scavenging the corpse of an unnamed human. Just before Kratos drives the bird off, it plucks out the remaining eyeball and eats it whole. | |

Fanservice Extra | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_f6c3d469 | comment |
Fanservice Extra: Poseidon's princess and Aphrodite's servants are extremely attractive women in skimpy clothing designed to show off most of their skin and leave their breasts exposed. The former is only used as a completely gratuitous Kick the Dog moment by Kratos because he needs to go through a door, the latter two only provides fanservice to the viewer. | |

Video Game Vista: The entrance to Tartarus, a seemingly-endless volcanic plain that reaches out into the distance. Kratos doesn't stay long, though, mostly because of Tartarus' most dangerous occupant, Cronos, trying to kill him. | |

Cruelty Is the Only Option | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_fc25c2fb | comment |
Cruelty Is the Only Option: Not unusual for the series (to the point it probably should have it's own page), but this installment takes the cake with how Kratos takes what looks to be Poseidon's mistress/sex slave, and makes her hold open a massive heavy crank for a gate, which, after a few seconds of you passing through pulls her in and crushes her, you can go back and see her bloody remains, which now hold said gate half open due to her corpse making the crank stuck. | |

One-Winged Angel | |
God of War III (Video Game) / int_fc33ff16 | comment |
One-Winged Angel: Poseidon enters his war form, which is a colossal simulacrum of himself connected to his Hippocampus and made of seawater, electricity and rocks. Slightly subverted in that Poseidon himself physically resides inside the colossus and the whole thing turns back into inanimate matter when he's forcibly removed by Kratos. After being deprived of the Claws and dragged into the Styx, Hades sheds his helmet and appears as a towering giant, exposing his deformed face and gashed cranium. During the final battle against Zeus, he manifests as a copy of himself made of sheer darkness which tries to infect Kratos with Fear as a last resort. | |
